Small Blue
Furrow
The music is by turns beautiful, playful and evocative with the leader’s drums at the heart of the music in what is a particularly well calibrated trio. It’s a recording that Pyne can be proud of.
A highly impressive debut album from Kilner, who impresses both as an instrumentalist and a composer. I predict that we will be hearing a lot more from this hugely talented young musician.
A very worthy addition to an already impressive back catalogue
An avant garde jazz record that is actually highly accessible. The playing is steely eyed & dynamic but the band members also sound as if they’re having terrific fun. The Exu are a breath of fresh air
A composer of considerable intelligence who deploys his wide range of influences subtly and skilfully. The standard of playing from an all star band is exceptional throughout.
